"I am 13 years old but have always loved fish. When I was 6, my parents bought me a 5!! gallon tank and a Pangasius Catfish.
The reason was the pet store said it would be OK. But I've seen large Pangasius Shark Catfish online... they get to be the size of a medium-sized dog! Please do NOT buy a Pangasius Catfish (or any other fish) on impulse until you know everything about them! Our Catfish got spooked one night and jumped, slammed into the lid, and died.
Do not purchase this Catfish until you can give it 300 gallons! because our fish lived its last month in a tank that was 60x smaller than its minimum tank size. These beautiful creatures are not for the average "I-Just-Want-A-Tank-Full-Of-Fish" aquarist. They should also have a round/cube tank. They will often refuse to eat in aquaria and when they come from an LFS infested with parasites.
These fish shouldn't be sold at pet stores. Buy from online supplyers, where fish are kept in pristine water in suitable tanks, shipped to serious aquariasts, then GO FOR IT!!"
